Touting itself as the bank that fights medical debt, BetterBank.app is a New York based neobank that offers cash if you lose your job during a medical emergency.

Founded in early 2019, BetterBank.app entered the US challenger bank space with an original idea: if you get your paycheck direct deposited in your BetterBank.app checking account, you automatically get a free built-in insurance policy which pays for medical deductibles and out of pocket expenses, every-day expenses like rent and groceries, and even lost income. And they emphasize that it is not a loan, you do not have to pay it back.

As of the last update, BetterBank.app is not yet live. They are offering a wait list for early access.
